If Republicans don’t act 24 million Americans will be devastated by sky rocketing health care costs.

Speaker Johnson needs to call his people back and stop covering up for pedophiles.

I was honored to meet with Ukrainian Ambassador Olga Stefanishyna today.

We will continue to stand with Ukraine and provide them the support they need to defend their freedom and defeat Russian aggression.

Ran into Speaker Johnson and told him exactly how I feel about Republicans shutting down the government to protect pedophiles and jack up health care costs for 24 million Americans.

Hey Juan, I got your letter. Let us know when you’re ready to come back to D.C. and actually work. I'll be here fighting to protect Arizonans' health care.

Today I was in Globe and Miami to survey the damage from last week’s flooding, talk with families and small business owners, and thank the first responders helping with recovery.

These communities are resilient and I’ll do everything I can to help them get back on their feet.

Imagine seeing families across the country struggle to get by and thinking the solution is to double their health insurance premiums.

That’s the Republican party right now.

Republicans had every chance to stop this shutdown and they chose not to. I’ll keep fighting to lower costs and protect working families.

Trump is straight up lying because he can’t tell Americans the truth: He’s raising your health care costs to pay for billionaire tax cuts.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 8d

It’s simple. Democrats are fighting to save millions of Americans from seeing their health care premiums doubled. Republicans are fighting for billionaire tax breaks.

It's outrageous that Republicans would rather shut down the government than vote to stop your insurance premiums from skyrocketing. I'm fighting to make sure that doesn't happen.

Senator Ruben Gallego @gallego.senate.gov · 9d

Republicans are trying to block us from keeping your healthcare costs down. They’d rather shut down the entire government than stop your insurance premiums from going up.

What happened in Grand Blanc this morning is devastating. No one should ever have to fear for their life in a place of worship. I’m praying for the victims, their families, and the entire community.

Arizona has 24 Hispanic-Serving Institutions, places like ASU and UA where thousands of our kids go to school.

Trump’s decision to cut funding for them is an attack on our students and our future.

We’re not backing down till we get this funding back.

Arizona’s natural resources are part of who we are — and it’s on us to protect them for future generations.

Yesterday, I kicked off our first Conservation Advisory Board meeting to hear from experts in the field and make sure our policies reflect the realities on the ground.

Everyone deserves internet access no matter their zip code.

Yesterday in Pima County, I saw firsthand how federal broadband investments are helping families. I won’t let this administration gut that progress and leave our communities behind.

Every single Senate Republican just voted to make your healthcare more expensive. When premiums sky rocket it’s them you should thank.
